Crab legs

[need2bthin! 235]

Okay could someone tell me how to make crab legs? I know it should be simple but I've never cooked any fish.

I would suggest you google it. It is very easy to do but the timing is important!

Get a pot of Water, add Old Bay Seasoning and a lemon sliced in half, squeeze the juice in the pot, then add the whole lemon. Once you have a rolling boil, add your frozen crab legs. boil for 3 minutes, remove and eat. That is for snow crab (the thin legs, smooth red and white shell). For King crab, (spiny bigger legs), 5 minutes. I usually cook my clusters in rounds, only 1-2 clusters at a time, if you dump a lot in the pot at once, the water will get too cold, it will take too long, and then you will have water logged crab. Good Luck!

I have the store steam them. Just ask at the fresh fish counter if they will. Its free. Although they might be a tad over steamed, causing the meat to srick to the shell, it still tastes good.

I just had crab legs for dinner and my tummy is sooooooo happy!
